Cami = Sammy = Swami


Yesterday I visited this wonderful home patient and did touch therapy with him. The doctor told him my name is Cami. He then said "Sammy?". Then after a few minutes it turned into "Swami". And then he was repeating "Swami" again and again. Pretty funny. The palliative care team had a good laugh about it...

Cami's Almost Cultural Faux Pas


I almost bought this wreath as a present for an Indian family. Before I bought it, an Indian gentleman stopped me and informed me that this was a death wreath, and “was I sure I wanted to buy this?”. Pretty funny. Needless to say, I didn't buy it...
